Answer:

0.0336 = 3.36% probability that a teenager spends less than 90 minutes watching videos on their phone per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A study indicates that teenagers spend an average of 112 minutes watching videos on their smartphones per week. Assume the distribution is normal, with a standard deviation of 12 minutes.

This means that \mu = 112, \sigma = 12

What is the probability that a teenager spends less than 90 minutes watching videos on their phone per week?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 90. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{90 - 112}{12}

Z = -1.83

Z = -1.83 has a p-value of 0.0336

0.0336 = 3.36% probability that a teenager spends less than 90 minutes watching videos on their phone per week.

Answer:

  •  x = -4, x = 0, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x is a factor of all terms, so x=0 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 1 and 5.)

The sum of coefficients is 0, so x=1 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 3 and 4.)

Reversing the sign of the odd-degree terms gives signs of -++, so there is one sign change, hence one negative real root (by Descartes' rule of signs). This confirms choice 2 as the answer.

___

Of course, your graphing calculator can answer this almost as quickly.

Answer:

5.33

Step-by-step explanation:

move the 4 out of the summation because  just a constant multiplier

4 *sum from 1 to 10 for (1/4)^(n-1)   [sorry i don't know how to write sums using latex)

The formula for the geometric sum is :

First term*(1-multiplier^n)/(1-multiplier), formally \frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Here multiplier is 1/4

First term is (1/4)^(1-1) = 1

Thus the value of sum is 1*(1-(1/4)^1^0)/(1-1/4)which equals (1- (1/4)^1^0)*4/3

We factored out 4 so its 4*(1-(1/4)^1^0)*4/3 which is 16/3 * (1- (1/4)^1^0)

This equals 5.333328247 which is 5.33 to the nearest hundredth
